Hearing of this 122-point high grade, sent a shock through everyone at once.

“My God, 122 points! My grade is only a fraction of his!”

“A score of 122 points! How could it be possible, is there any mistake? I may have believed, it if it was 22 points.”

“Dai Li, I have heard about him before. He hasn’t been in our team for long, and is probably still in his twenties. How would it possible for him to earn 122 points?!”

Hearing the people’s discussions, Youdi Wei clenched his fists angrily.

How can this be true?! My 49 points was the highest grade! Why there is someone else, whose grade is higher than mine, almost twice as much as mine, in fact! It’s impossible! It must be some shady deal! Right, this Deputy Director must be predetermined?! The competition cannot real, but only a show!

Youdi Wei was plagued by all kinds of negative conjectures. Someone from the crowd said, “I think I once saw Dai Li before. A few days ago, in the visiting group to America, he was there.”

“Isn’t that visiting group only allowing chief coaches in? How could Dai Li be a part of it?”

“Well, you know why. He must have some backings, otherwise, how could he go to America!”

“Then, this competition for Ping-pong fitness coach is just a show, the leaders have already determined Dai Li as the man to win.”

“Probably so, otherwise, how can he gain 122 points, which is the sum of five to six people’s grades?! There is no need for the others to compete anymore. I say, let’s give the Deputy Director to him directly!”

The discussions stimulated Youdi Wei’s incomparable anger. After all, his 49 points used to be the highest among all the candidates, that is, before Dai Li’s grade came out. He had been believing that he was only one step away from that position, but now, he felt that he had been treated in an extremely unfair way.

“So-called selection, we are all supporting actors!” Youdi Wei snorted coldly.

Meanwhile, someone standing at the front said, “There is a sentence at the bottom of the announcement, and it says that detailed evaluation information can be found in the attached file. Ha! This announcement has an attachment! Perhaps the information is too much, so that it can’t fit in this announcement.”

“Let’s go to find a computer, and take a look at the detailed evaluation. I want to know why I only gained 20 points!”

“Yeah, I also want to see what my 25 points are about!”

“And Dai Li’s 122 points, I want to check why they gave him 122 points!”

Referring to Dai Li’s 122 points, someone joked in anger, “Well, well, perhaps he once cultivated an Olympic champion!”

“An Olympic champion? Shall he have had the chance?” another person said, while pointing at the mailroom not far from there. “If I’m right, there is a computer in the mailroom, let’s go and check the attachment!”

As he appealed, the others immediately moved towards the mailroom also.

…

“That’s it, click here and download the file!”

A form was displayed on the screen.

“Old Ding, you are the first one. College degree, two points, length of employment, 11 points…”

“Don’t look at mine, I’m finished. Look at someone else’s,” said Coach Ding.

“How about Dai Li’s? Let’s look at his!” a person, who stood at the back, suggested.

The one in front of the computer dragged the mouse, soon finding Dai Li’s name.

“University degree, 5 points. Length of employment, 5 points, these are only 10 points. Where do the 122 points come from?”

“Let’s see what’s next, ah, his achievements.”

The guy kept moving his mouse, and located Dai Li’s coaching achievements.

“Got it, here, let me see. Athlete’s name, Aiguo Jiang. Organization, Hanbei Weightlifting Team. Achievements during training, National Weightlifting Grand Prix Qingcheng substation 62kg Champion.”

“A national Grand Prix substation champion can only have brought him 4 points!”

“He has to have at least 30 national Grand Prix substation champions to gain 120 points!”

“Like I said earlier, Dai Li must have some backing, hence, this competition is indeed a show…”

The coaches discussed these findings with disdain, while the one sitting in front of the computer continued reading.

“Athlete name, Haiquan Fang. Organization, Hanbei Youth Athletics Team. Achievements During Training, Hanbei Youth Games Long Jump Champion.”

“Provincial Youth Game Champion? That is nothing, only counts 2 or 3 points!” someone snorted.

“Wait a minute, what is the athlete’s name again? Haiquan Fang? Is it THAT Haiquan Fang?” another person asked.

“You mean the Asian Games Long Jump Champion Haiquan Fang? Hey, he did come from our youth team. No one else would be named that!”

“Haiquan Fang is the domestic long jump genius No. 1. He won the Asian Games champion at 18! Was he trained by Dai Li? I remember that, in the evaluation rubric it mentioned, sending talents to the national team also counts as achievements, and so one can earn some points for that.”

“Besides, Dai Li sent an Asian Games champion, which also counts. He can add some points on this.”

“But that’s still not enough for 122 points!” Youdi Wei was quite discomforted, as he continued, “Besides, Haiquan Fang won the Asian Games Champion after he joined in the national team, so he didn’t make it when he was in our team.”

“Make sense. The boxing team’s National Games championship and National Championships first place were all made, step by step, and Wei put all his efforts in it!” somebody said, to defend Youdi Wei against any injustice.

The guy in front of the computer moved on, reading, “Athlete name, Guohong Niu. Organization, Tsinghua University athletic team.Achievements during training, National University Games Third Place.”

“Bah! There are no professional athletes in the National University Games, as the participants’ competences can only be high-level amateurs at most. A third place, one -point reward is too much for its caliber!” someone said in a cynical tone, with a lopsided mouth smirk.

“Wait, that’s not the end yet… Athlete name, Guohong Niu. Organization, National Athletic Team. Achievements during training, the Asian Games Men’s 4×100m Relay Race Champion!”

“The Asian Games Relay Race champion? I see, that’s why I felt this name sounded familiar. He was one of the champion relay team members. A few days ago in the National Games, he was in the Top Eight, if I’m right.”

“The organization is the National Athletic Team. Was Dai Li in the national team before?”

“Perhaps, during the Asian Games Training Camp, he was favored by a national team coach, and so then was able to stay in the national team for a while. Such things happen sometimes,” someone reminded the crowd.

The people present were all professionals, and without further explanation needed, they understood what had happened.

“Then this Guohong Niu was also sent by Dai Li to the national team. Moreover, he was also a champion in the Asian Games, which could earn many points for Dai Li.”

“If Dai Li has several trainees, each of whom are as good as Guohong Niu, 122 points is indeed possible. After all, an Asian Games championship is worth more points than a National Games champion.”

Youdi Wei’s face looked even more terrible now. His trainees were only champions in the National Games and the National Championships, but Dai Li had two Asian Games champions already.

Previously, Haiquan Fang’s Asian Games champion was not cultivated by Dai Li himself, but the national team. Thus, Youdi Wei could find some excuse to convince himself that Dai Li was not as good as him. But now that Guohong Niu was trained by Dai Li all the time, even in the national team, Youdi Wei couldn’t find any more excuses.

It’s just an Asian Games champion! Youdi Wei thought with a lopsided mouth, his face filled with discomfort.

But the guy at the computer screen kept reading:

“Athlete name, Sijie Yang. Organization, Tsinghua University Athletic Team. Achievements during training, the National University Games Champion!”

In the next second, somebody shouted with surprise, “Sijie Yang? The Asian Games 100m Sprint champion Sijie Yang? The guy who is most likely to run it in 10 seconds? He is also Dai Li’s student?”

At this moment, Youdi Wei’s face turned extremely pale…
